4. By the term "Conditionally
Rejected” is meant that the can-
didate has presented some defect.

Candidates, with Conditional
Rejections, who attain a place on
the Eligible List for Fireman
must request and pass medical
reexaminations after publication
of the list, but before the expira-
tion of six months after such pub-
lication.

5. Those who are “Rejected” by
the medical examiners will be
notified to appear for one reex-
amination some time before the
last day for medical and physical
examinations, to be later an-
nounced by the Commission,

If on reexamination they are
“Passed” or “Conditionally Re-
jected,"” Regulation No. 3 above
shall apply.

If they fail to appear or are re-
jected again on reexamination,
they are entirely eliminated.

6. Examinations or reexamina-
tions beyond those provided for
cannot be entertained.

Physical

7. The physical examination is
competitive and therefore under
no circumstances are reexamina-
tions ever granted regardless of
accidents, injuries, sickness or
other misfortune (except for Com-
mission regulations or military
service).

8 There shall be no prescribed
order of taking the various tests
and candidates may be required
to start at any point, The En-
durance Test, however, shall be
the last test for every candidate.

9. A rest of 15 minutes shall be
allowed each candidate before be-
ing required to take the Endur-
ance Test. There is no other
privilege of resting allowed. Any
candidate who enters the Endur-
ance Test, without consuming 15
minutes for rest, shall be consid-
ered to have waived his rest
period,

10. Dumbbells. Not more than
4 chances by each hand shall be
allowed.

11. Abdominals.
4 chances allowed.

12, Dummy Lift and Carry.
more than 3 chances allowed.

13. Agility. The candidate shall
be allowed not more than one
chance without foul. He shall fail
in the examination if he does not
accomplish the test within the
time limit or for the commission
of three fouls. The common fouls
are these: Short Broad Jump;
Running Out of Course; Knock-
ing Hurdles Down.

TESTS AT CAMPS
PRESENT PROBLEM

Should Civil Service exams be
given at camps?

The New York City Civil Serv-
ice Commission is finding real dif-
ficulty in administering tests to
draftees—difficulties which could
not have been foreseen in advance,
‘The decision to abandon the prac-
tice of holding exams at camps
has not been finally arrived at,
but they seem to be definitely on
the way out. Men who have filed
for the fireman test will be those
most immediately concerned. If
they can return when the test is
held, there will, of course, be no
problem. If they can't, they may
be unable to participate in the
exam until after the end of their
training period, when special ex-
ams will be provided for them,

Not more than

Not

the candidate

‘ot the Place”

Queried by a LEADER reporter,
one of the Commission's officials
this week stated that, if it is fi-
nally necessary to drop the prac-
tice of holding exams at camp—
“and we would do so with regret”
—it is only because of the imprac-
tical nature of the situation.
“The army camp just isn’t the
place for Civil Service examina-
tions. Men are tired. The Army
officials don't particularly like it,
It may interfere with maneuvers,
And where equipment is required,
such as is necessary for the fire-
man physical test, it’s just out of
the question to install it in Army
camps all over the country.”

Asked whether the State Civil

Service Commission was experi-

shall repeat the test with a pen-
alty of 4% for each foul. This
means that a candidate, who per-
forms the test perfectly on his
second trial, shall receive not
more than 96% and a candidate
who performs his test perfectly
on his third trial shall receive not
more than 92%.

14, Endurance. 1 Chance Al-
lowed. If a candidate falls with-
out rising or leaves the course
without returning to continue
from the exact place whence he
left, all within the time limit, he
shall be entirely eliminated.

15. Coordination. 1 Practice
Trial Allowed. This under no cfr-
cumstances shall be made a part
of the record. Two other chances
are allowed, with the better of
the two being accepted for the
rating in Coordination,

16. Candidates having once en-
tered into the physical examina-
tion must continue to the conclu-
sion thereof at the same session
of the examination, Failure to
do so regardless of accident, in-
fury, sickness or any “misfortune
must result in complete witn-
drawal and elimination from the
competition.

Want to Drive a Bus?
You Must Operate Trolley First

They won’t let you drive a bus
unless you can operate a trolley
car. And all the men on the auto
engineman eligible list have
notice that they can’t expect to
get jobs as bus drivers unless
they have first gone through a
week’s course learning to operate
a trolley, and
work on a trolley.

‘The present trolley car oper
ators will all be taken on as bus
drivers before the men from the
new list. The auto enginemen
must go through the routine be-
fore they can get to the bus
drivers. The routine is (1) take
the in-service training course in
trolley car operation; (2) get a
job operating a trolley; (3) await
your turn for a bus.

As described in last week’
LEADER, the Civil Service Com-
mission has already held a course
in the operation of trolley car:
An additional course is in pros-
pect, in fact two courses—one

lasting from June 9 through June
13; the second from June 16
through June 20. Auto engine-

High school graduates who
wish to become nurses can apply

tember classes of the six nurses’
training schools conducted by the
Department of Hospitals. Appli-
cations will be reviewed by the
Committee on Admissions during
the month of July.

Applications can be obtained by
writing to, or applying at, the Di-
vision of Nursing, Department of
Hospitals, 125 Worth street, New
York, Candidates who are ac-
cepted will be required to make
a deposit of eighty-five dollars
to $130, depending upon the par-
ticular school to which they seek
admission, This deposit covers
the cost of their books and cloth-
ing. After a period of four
months probation, students in the
training schools are paid twenty
dollars per month.

500 to Be Accepted

As exclusively revealed in The

LEADER three weeks ago, 500
new students will be accepted in
the September classes. Only
those students will be acceptea
who have good scholastic records
and who possess the ability to
think and act on a mature level.
Candidates for admission must be
between the ages of eighteen and
thirty and in good health. Fe-
male candidates should be at least
five feet tall, male candidates
five feet four.

All candidates who meet the re-
quirements of the Committee on
Admissions, will have to pass a
psychometric test before final ad-
mission into the training schools.
‘The psychometric test consists of
a general intelligence test, a me-
chanical aptitude test and a per-
sonality test. It is a standardized
nursing test given by the Psycho-
logical Corporation for nursing
schools throughout the country.
A fee of five dollars is paid to
the Psychological Corporation by
candidates who take this test.

Students in the six schools un-

dergo an intensive three years’
training. Upon graduation they
are practically assured of a posi-
tion in the city’s hospitals,
Nurses in city hospitals receive a
salary of seventy-five dollars per
month, plus maintenance, or §105
without maintenance to start.
They receive an annual salary in-
crease of thirty dollars after the
first year and three additional
thirty dollar increases at int
vals of six months, Graduates
are eligible to take the license
examination for Registered Nurse,
conducted by the Board of Re.
gents of New York State.

The six training schools con-
ducted by the Department of Hos-
pitals are: Mills School of Nurs-
ing for Men, Bellevue Hospital
School of Nursing for Women,
Cumberland Hospital School of
Nursing, Harlem Hospital School
of Nursing, Kings County Ho:
pital School of Nursing, and Me
ropolitan Hospital School of Nurs-
ing.

Streamlined Appointment System

Will Speed Up Process of Connecting Job and Eligible

A new, streamlined procedure
designed to speed up the making
of appointments in the city ser-
vice has been adopted on a trial
basis by the Municipal Civil Ser
vice Commission, The new plan
will be tried only in departments
like the Board of Transportation,
Police and Fire Departments
which make several hundred ap-

pointments at one time.

Under the new setup, dupli-
cate copies of lists will be sent to
these city agencies when they are

published, and the Commi
will keep the departments in-
formed of alterations on the
lists, like changes of address, or

eligibles not qualified medically
and so on,

Here, in graphic form, is the agility test on which prospective New York
City firemen will be examined. Admittedly tough, the test devised by Pro-
fessor Francis P. Wall assures New Yorkers of fire-fighters who know how
to move about and act quickly in any emergency which may confront them.

The Test for Hospital, Laundry Workers

Here Is What to Expect on the Coming Literacy Test

Hospital Helper and Laundry
Worker eligibles, will be given
written literacy tests, Saturday,
June 7. The written literacy test
should not be confused with a

TWU Bids for Support

In the keen struggle between
the Board of Transportation and
the TWU, the union this week
undertook an enlarged campaign
for public support and at the
same time gained the support of
the American Civil Liberties
Union, In a little pamphlet called
“Transit Truths” addressed di-
rectly to the public, the Transport
Workers Union chafged that “the
» and efficient transportation
of the people should be of para-
mount concern to the Board of
Transportation, Unfortunately it
isn't.” The pamphlet cited rea-
Sons why the men require a
union, and alleged that the Board
has been remiss in retaining
Wooden cars, unsanitary cars, hir-
ing an insufficient number of
Platform guards and station
agents, In answer to the claim
that the city can’t bargain col-
lectively with its employees,
“Transit Truths” points to the
city of Seattle, where an AFL
transit union has a closed shop
Contract with the city,

The Civil Liberties Union en-
fered the situation by declaring
'\ wished to present a brief in
tho legal fight between the union
"nd the transit board.

Describing as ‘‘wholly unten-
ene the Board of Transporta-

8 contention that it has no
Power to contract with organized
‘bor, the New York City Com-

mittee of the American Civil
Liberties Union notified the
Transport Workers Union that it
would support court action to es-
tablish the right of subway em-
ployees to organize and to bar-
gain collectively.

Through its counsel, Osmond K,
Fraenkel, the committee said that
“there are no legal barriers to ne-
gotiations or agreements between
the city and its employees organ-
ized into trade unions, Collective
bargaining—i m plying also the
right to strike—is now obligatory
in private industry and is in prin-
ciple quite as valid in public
agencies." The committee said it
would ask leave to file a brief in
the Board of Transportation's suit
in Supreme Court in which the
board is asking for a declaratory
judgment holding that the board
cannot legally enter into a collec-
tive bargaining agreement with
the union.

Won't Support Closed Shop

The committee declared it would
not support the Board of Trans-
portation employees in any de-
mand for a ‘‘closed shop’ which
might conflict with the rules for
appointment under Civil Service,
but that ‘the city’s claim that
any employee who strikes may
lose his Civil Service status,
which means in effect his job, is
a definite threat to the civil lib-
erties of the employees affected,
‘The law prohibits private employ-
ers from discriminating against
workers solely for going out on
strike, There is no valid reason
why the same protection should
not be accorded the city’s subway
employees,"

write English will pass, and will
be appointed in the order in which
they filed their applications, sub-
ject to a medical examination,

‘The literary test will be similar
to the tests given persons who
vote for the first time. It will
consist of a printed paragraph,
and a few questions, possibly ten,
on the contents of the paragraph,
Candidates will have the printed
paragraph before them as they
answer the questions. If they can
read the paragraph, they will be
able to answer the questions, For
the benefit of eligibles on the
Hospital Helper and Laundry
Worker lists, The LEADER re-
prints below the following liter-
ary test which was given to can-
didates for Laboratory Helper in
1939, The test follow:

Time Allowed: 20 Minutes

READ THIS AND THEN WRITE
THE ANSWERS. READ IT AS
MANY TIMES AS YOU NEED
TO.

The superintendent 1s respon-
sible for the proper upkeep of the
building. The porters report to
him on all cleaning and repairing
matters, A routine is followed
for cleaning and other services.
The superintendent confers with

the manager on all important
questions concerning building
care. He makes out a daily re-

port stating the kind of work
done and the amount of time it
took to complete. It may state
that on Oct, 22, 1938, the floors
in rooms 401, 412, and 435 were
washed by one person taking one
and one-quarter hours time.

(THE ANSWERS TO THE FOL-
LOWING QUESTIONS ARE TO
BE TAKEN FROM THE ABOVE
PARAGRAPH)

1, Who is responsible for the up-
keep of the building?
2, On what matter:
ters report to him?

3. What plan is followed for
cleaning the building?

4. With whom does the superin-

do the por-

tendent meet about important
matters?
5. What does he make out
daily?

6, What may be the date of the
report?

7. Give the room numbers of the
rooms in which the work was
done.

8, What kind of work was done?

9. How long did it take to com-
plete the work?

10. How many people worked in
these rooms?

Candidates will be called for ex-
amination at 9 am,, 11:30 am.,
and 1:30 p.m, Hospital Helper
and Laundry Worker eligibles
who have not been notified should
write to the Municipal Civil Serv-
ice Commission, 299 Broadway,
New York City, immediately.

AFL TRANSITMEN
PROTEST 7-DAY WEEK

Local 21193 of the American
Federation of Municipal Transit
Workers. has protested against
the seven-day week for certain
employees in the Independent Di-
vision of the city subway system,
The local has joined forces with
representatives of motor switch-
men in their efforts to have em-
ployees assigned from other roads
returned to the other roads,

Many promotions, appointments
and advancements in seniority
privileges are expected in the In-
dependent system in the near fu-
ture. One hundred and thirty-
nine eligibles will be called from
the fire list to fill positions as
platform men, Approximately 500
conductors who have been in
service one year have been noti-
fied to apply for training courses
and written promotion examina-
tions, Motor-switchmen who are
promoted from yard to road duty,
will jump from eighty cents to
ninety-five cents per hour. Con-
ductors who are promoted to mo-
tor-switchmen will go from seyen-
ty-five cents to eighty cents per
hour; trainmen who are made
conductors will advance froin six-
ty-two and one-half cents to sey-
enty-five cents, and platform men
who become conductors will step
from fifty cents to sixty-two and
one-half cents per hour.

Thus, when a department ts
about to make appointments from
a list, it goes to the list of eligi-
bles—which it has on hand—ana

simply sends out certification
notes directly. ‘This eliminates
the present delay of waiting until
the Commission's certification
bureau types up and sends

through the mail a copy of quali-
fied eligibles, The saving in time
is about three days.

The new plan was adopted by
the Commission now because of
the present rush of summer ap-
pointments and the increasing
number of eligibles who decline
city jobs because they are work+
ing in defense industries, The
Commission felt it would be un-
able to handle the appointment
requests of the Board of Trans-
portation and the Police and Fire

Departments unless some faster
way was found.
The Commission pointed out

that the new method for making
appointments would not lessen its
responsibility to see that all ap-
pointments were made in ac-
cordance with the provisions of
Civil Service law.

A similar plan is being used in
Washington by the Federal Com-
mission tc meet the rush created
by the national emergency and
so far has been working satis-
factorily.

Appointments
To Subway

Several hundred appointments
will made to the Board of
Transportation during the sum-
mer months to replace railroad
clerk and platform men while
they are on vacation, according to
the Municipal Civil Service Com-
mission's certification bureat

be

The fireman list has already
been certified to fill these tem-
Porary jobs. Because it is ex-

pected that there will be many
declinations on account of the
temporary nature of the work,
the Commission certified more
than 1,400 men from the firemen
list.

Asst. Case Supers
Can't Take Higher Test

A request of the Department of
Welfare to permit Assistant Case
Supervisors to take the promo-
tion test for Senior Supervisor
was denied by the Commission,
In setting up eligiblity require-
ments for this test, the Commis-
sion stated that its intent was to
include only supervisors in the
third grade and social investiga-
tors in the old line divisions who
have been performing duties equi-
valent to the third grade. If the
assistant supervisors were ad-
mitted to the test, the Commis-
sion added, it would mean that
they would be skipping a grade,

CIVILIAN
POLICE OFFICERS
TO BE HIRED

"The Senate has before it a bill,

would permit the Navy Depart-
ment to hire approximately 350
civilian police officers to keep an
eye peeled for sabateurs and spies

must have been of a statistical
nature, such as the making of
computations for statistical pur-
Poses, the tabulating of data,

The plan to hold joint exami-
nations for city, state, and federal
services; to set up eligible lists
which will be equally usable by
the three services; and to work
out a set of similar standarts for
all three Commissions 13 proceed-
ing with such speed that it may
be put into effective action with-
in two months,

‘The idea isn’t new. It has been
talked about many times. But
only within recent weeks have the
blueprints been drawn up. Miss
Grace Reavy for the New York
State Commission, and Dr. Wal-
lace Sayre for the New York City
Commission have been scurrying
down to Washington to discuss
the plan with officials of the fed-
eral Civil Service body,

Reasons for the innovavion is
the labor shortage veing experi-
enced by all three commissions as
a result of the defense program.
At first confined largely to skilled
mechanical craftsmen, the short-
age is running at an increasing
pace until it has taken in a va-
riety of occupations from tool-
maker to stenographer.

The LEADER has obtained a
list of the positions in which the
federal government now is ex-
periencing a shortage, and which
will form the basis of the first
joint tests. The list appears be-
low, together with salaries now
being paid by the federal gov-
ernment.

CIVIL SERVICE IN NEW YORK STATE

By MORTON YARMON

Salary Inequalities End NewsAbout Attendant Test Extended

‘mong the important pieces of
civil Service legislation passed
this session by the State Legisla-
ture is the Ostertag Act amend-
ine the Feld-Hamilton career law
for State employees. Major pro-
visions of this measure, already
in effect, aret

j, Inequalittes caused by over-
lapping of some salary grades are
ended. For example, the Junior
Clerk salary is $900-§1,400; that
of Assistant Clerk §1,200-$1,700;
that of Senior Clerk $1,600-$2,100,
yormerly, a Junior Clerk earning
51,300 could be promoted to an
‘Assistant title at $1,400, as the
wintmum salary of the promo-
tional position ($1,400) is lower
than What he was earning previ-
ously. However, if he had been
earning $1,200, equal to the min-
{mum of the Assistant grade, he
would receive the same $1,200 on
promotion, ‘The new law allows

salary Increases, upon promotion,
ty employees: whose salaries were

equal to or higher than the
minimum of the promotion grade,
nder the amended law, a&

promoted employee whose salary
in the lower grade was equal to
or higher than the minimum sal-
ary in the promotional grade is
to be credited with the number
of years of service in the higher
grade corresponding to his new
silaty rate, for purposes of fu-
ture increments. This gets around
fa recent ruling of the Attorney
General, that increments in a
grade are payable only on the
busis of actual years of service in

such grade, Under this ruling, a
Junior Clerk receiving $1,300 who
was promoted to Assistant Clerk
at $1,400 had to stay at that sal-
ary for three years before he
could receive a $100 increment,
The reason: an employee is en-
titled to an increment-raised sal-
ary of $1,500 only after three
years in a grade starting at $1,200,
Under the amendment, a Junior
Clerk promoted to Assistant Clerk
fat $1,400 receives an increment
after one year,

3, Under the decision in DeLack
vs, Greene, preferred lists were
declared to have priority over pro-
motions, Since certain reclassifi-
cations require that some posi-
tions must be filled by promotion,
the existence of ‘preferred lists
might block such reclassification.
The new law declares that pre-
ferred lists do not have priority
in a position brought about by a
reclassification,

4, Appeals may be taken from
the determinations of the Classi-
fication Board only within 60
days,

5, The Salary Standardization
Board is continued in existence to

PRISON GUARD
LIST ON WAY

With 35 immediate jobs in the
offing, establishment of the 5,000-
name Prison Guard list is now set
within the next few weeks, ac-
cording to latest estimates from
the State Civil Service Commis-
sion,

Qualifying medical exams have
been administered to the top 1,000
eligibles on the coming list. Those
who failed to meet the physical
requirements are to be notified of
the reasons for failure by the
Commission in letters going out
this week, They will have to
make any appeal on remediable
defects, with supporting testimony
from physicians, by a deadline
late this month,

‘The 35 jobs are now being filled
by proyisionals appointed since
the previous list expired last Oc-
tober 19, All of the provisionals
competed in the recent test; if
they are reachable for appoint-
ment they will undoubtedly re-
ceive jobs.

Chances for those on the coming
lst are much brighter than nor-
mal. The new prison at Green-
haven will open at the end of this
year, The institution is to re-
quire 200-225 guards over a period
of four years, The regular guard
turnover throughout the Correc-
tion Department is 50-60 a year,
but that figure has been increas-
ing since many of the guards are
going into the army,

Guards are required to go
through a two-month training
Period at the Guard School at
Wallkill Prison, ‘This school is
open for four sessions during the
year, either for new guards or as
an In-service training’ center for
those aleady on the job,

Federal Agencies
Should Come to N. Y.

HE LEADER learns that the Internal Revenue

| Bureau is transferring its training school from

Washington to the St. George Hotel in Brooklyn,

where hundreds of special agents and deputy collectors

will be taught how to collect taxes during the summe!

and fall months. The Bureau couldn't get facilities

Washington to locate its school and hotel accommoda-

tions weren't available for the visiting employees to stay

-—so it was decided to bring the whole thing within the
precincts of New York City.

Now there are very good reasons why federal agencies
should establish themselves in New York City, and
Mayor LaGuardia is on solid ground when he advocates
the idea,

In the first place, Washington just hasn’t the avail-
able housing, You can find government departments in
old theatres, private houses, and makeshift hurriedly -
built structures of all kinds. Housing for employees is
a problem of the top magnitude. Literally, you can find
government employees living in trailers, and in some
cases, we hear, tents. Washington has aptly been called
a twentieth century boom-town, and like all boom-towns,
it suffers from lack of space and insufficient housing
facilities.

In contrast, New York City provides ample space in
large, well-built office structures, In downtown and
midtown Manhattan, there 1s an oversupply of good com-
mercial space, Housing of employees will be no prob-
lem at all — there are plenty of good apartments in
Brooklyn, the Bronx, and Manhattan itself,

There are even larger reasons to recommend New
York as a proper site for federal agencies. New York
is the nation's nerve center. It is the world’s largest
port, and one of America’s greatest railroad points. It
is the financial and commercial core of the nation, Even
today, Washington's contact with New York must be
constant, Federal agencies established in New York
would find it easier to operate than in Washington, be-
cause so many of the nation’s important facilities—and
men, too—are to be found here,

From a Civil Service point of view, New York would
make an ideal spot for federal agencies, because the per-
sonnel could be obtained here—and Washington is ex-
periencing a real personnel problem, For example, Wash-
ington can’t get enough stenos and typists—and one rea-
son is that New York clerical employees prefer to remain
in New York. No such shortage would come up if federal
agencies located in the city.

One estimate indicates that 200,000 additional workers
could be accommodated in midtown Manahttan alone,
which would accommodate most of the non-defense
agencies,

We think the idea is a good one. We hope the Mayor
keeps pegging away at it.

ACANCIES in the State in-
stitutions, brought on by a
lack of men and women will-
ing to accept Attendant posts, are
close to the danger point...Offi-
cials hope that the story in a
metropolitan daily on that SOMWA
suspension won't undermine em-
ployer confidence in the State
Employment Service...Every time
a trolley is taken out of service
in New York City, two or three
buses must be added...So im-
portant has employee training be-
come that the City Commission’s
Training Bureau will soon take
quarters three times the space
now occupied... Buffalo is in the
market for woman life-guards.
The draft has seriously reduced
the number of available males.....

perience has given him balance for
the job he now holds: Director of
‘Training for the Division of Place-
ment and Unemployment Insurance
in the State Labor Department,

On July 1 the training unit of
the DPUI shifts into high gear, Al-
though such a unit has been in ex-
istence since 1934, lack of personnel
has crippled its value. In the com-
ing budget, though, a larger staff
is provided for. Director Enslow
has already set an ambitious pro-
gram for his unit, centered about
four major purposes

1, Prepare employees to perform
individual tasks more efficiently.

2. Increase each individual's un-
derstanding of his job and its rela-
tionship to other jobs in the di-
vision,

8. Achieve versatility of perform-
ance through better understanding

of the details of unemployment ;

No One Exempt From Law

Sirs; Is the Housing Authority
exempt from Civil Service law? It
not, why are they permitted to ig-
nore the eligible list for Carpenter
promulgated by the Civil Service
Commission this year? Men with
neither competitive Civil
status nor the necessary experience
are handling work running into
thousands of dollars, Two of these
men are porters, a third calls him-
self an unlicensed plumber in the
labor class,

‘The work done by these men is
not to be confused with mainte-
nance work, It is new work, al-
ready two months in progress, It
has four more months to go.

This letter has the approval of
four carpenters on the eligible list
for Carpenter, whose aggregate ex-
perience totals seventy-nine years,
How much carpentry experience
have the two porters and the un-
lcensed plumber in the labor class?

For the benefit of Civil Service,

Protests Against
Card-Punch Exam

Sirs: Why another Card-Punch
exam?

I took a Card-Punch test only last
November, I received a’mark of
80 percent and have not been ap-
pointed yet. I know many candi-
dates received higher marks, Many,
also, received lower marks, Cer-
tainly, there are plenty of names on
the register for Card-Punch oper-
ator now,

It the U. 8, Civil Service Com-
mission is so busy that they cannot
even send me my standing on the
list, how can they have time to rate
the applications on the new Card-
Punch test, anyway?

I happen to be one of those i
fortunate eligibles on the Brooklyn

I believe you will agree with me

tion that it is most unfair that «
gibles on the New York list with
85% are working while Brooklya
eligibles with 95% are not work
despite the fact that we all tool the

Because I know that you stond

Grab-Bag
Of Queries

A. F, Z.: (1) Under present prac-
tice social investigators in the
Erie County welfare service may
not be transferred to the New
York City Welfare Department.
(2) A federal appointment on an
“indefinite, temporary basis’ does
not give the appointee permanent
status even if the period of ser
vice ultimately exceeds the six-
month probationary period nor-
mally required for permanent
status, This rule applies to all
appointees, veterans, widows
non-veterans, If you are reached
on the list for permanent appoint-
ment, the temporary status will
terminate. (3) The Hampton bill
signed by the Governor relating
to veterans in welfare depart
ments or agencies applies only to
veterans and volunteer firemen
serving as provisional or tem-
porary appointees and who were
serving in such welfare depart-
ments on December 31, 1937. They
are not given permanent posi-
tions; it merely requires that dur-
ing their provisional or temporary
service they have the same pro-
tection against removal as other
veterans have in permanent po-
sitions. The law applies to all
welfare services, state, county,
city, town, village.

Only One Probation

J. C.: An employee who has
completed his probationary period
of service acquires a “perma-
nent” status and when he is
transferred to a similar position
in another department after ac
quiring permanency he does not
have to serve a new probationary
period in the department to
which’ he has been transferred.
‘This is true in the federal as well
as in the state and city services.

Refusing a Job

S.M.: Your refusal of a job as
porter does not remove you from
the list for sanitation man. You
can still be certified for other ap-
propriate jobs, also. If you ac-
cept one of these appropriate jobs,
you will still remain on the list
for sanitation man, but you will
not be offered any other appro-
priate jobs.

Selective Certification
—What it Means

Mrs. L.G.M.; Selective certifi-
cation means that eligibles on a
Civil Service list for one title are
certified to vacancies in another

title, This is done when no list
exists for a certain title. The
Commission certifies _ eligibles

from a nearly similar register,
subject to their passing a qualify-

ing examination. Thus eligibles
on the list for auto engineman
were certified to fill vacancies as
street car operators, subject to
their successful completion of the

street-car training course, As
published in The LEADER re-
cently, 270 auto engineman eligi-

bles passed this test. Their is no
definite period of time between
certification and appointment

T.J.B.: The U. 8. Civil Service
Commission does not release reg-
isters of eligibles for publication.

Requirements

For Policewoman

H.V.: The requirements for the
last test for policewoman were
1) Graduation from Senior High
School and two years of satisfac-
tory full-time paid experience in
social, probation, parole, peno-
logical work, teaching, nursing,
investigation, newspaper report-
ing, law-enforcement, accounting,
bookkeeping, stenography, music,
languages, theatrical, or other
public appearances, athletic, med-
ical, legal or other satisfactory
work, or 2) four years of such
experience, or 3) a degree from
a college of recognized standing,
or 4) a satisfactory equivalent or
combination of the foregoing.
Candidates had to be in good
physical health, at least 5 feet, 2
inches tall and 120 pounds in
weight. 20/40 vision without the |
use of glasses was required. The
entrance salary is $2,000 per year.
After five years policewomen re-
ceive $3,000. |

Transfer Privileges |

K.R.: You will have to wait |
until you have served six months
in your present position before |
you will have the privilege of a|
transfer. In order to transfer,
you will then have to find a va-|
cancy in your title in the depart- |
ment to which you wish to trans- |
fer. In order to effect the trans-
fer, you will have to obtain the
permission of the heads of that
department and your own depart-
ment, You can only transfer to
those other titles for which the
requirements were not more strict
than the entrance requirements to
your own position, We suggest
that you write to the Personnel
Officers of the various federal de-
partments in New York as soon as
you have served your six months.

'The key answers in these exams will probably be subject to much

dispute.

It is held by many who took the tests that a number of the

questions were open to more than one interpretation, that some of the
sentences were fuzzily worded and not easy to understand, Candidates
have until June 14 to file to file their objections to any of these key
answers with the Civil Service Commission.

4,468,180 relief checks were dis-
tributed,

Weekly religious ceremonies
were instituted in the Municipal
Loaging House for the first time
in its 44-year history.

The Trend

The relief population is rapidly
approaching the irreducible mini-
mum. Consequently, no sharp re-

|_ duction, as has been experienced

in the past five years, is again ex-
pected, Summing up, the report
states, ‘‘The most important sin-
gle factor which influences the
future trends of relief case load
and expenditure is the degree to
which persons now employed will
remain in employment and the ex-
tent to which persons now on re-
lief will secure employment.” A
total of 61,570 home relief cases
out of 139, 718 cases studied, or
44.1 per cent, have no employable
member and therefore no means
of self support.

In transmitting the report to
the Mayor, Commissioner William
Hodson said:

“This report reveals a slow,
steady decrease in the city's total
relief load since the fall of 1935,
but we are approaching the irre-
ducible minimum case load of
families that have no employable
members. As you are fully
aware, any arbitrary cuts in
WPA below what the President
has asked Congress for, will
simply mean an increase in the
Home Relief load carried by the
Department of Welfare, WPA
workers are not being absorbed
in industry at a rapid rate, par-
ticularly in New York City where
there are few defense industries,
Thus, the entire burden of those
who have no work will be shifted
back upon the city and State,
This does not add up to a sen-
sible solution of the problem. We
must look forward to a gradual
but steady decline in relief expen-
ditures—not a precipitous drop.

POLICE CALLS

By MIKE SULLIVAN

training course on Criminal Law Enforcement in New York cir,“

cowe; Lloyd N. Scott, of the Council on Criminal Law and Proce.”
Dr. John J, Furia, Director of Training for the Civil Service ca’
mission,

It’s June 9

When Mayor La Guardia said the Police promotions and ney
pointments would be made June 1 in his speech at the medal-awi rq,
ceremonies last week, it seems he didn’t mean June 1... Contrary 6
a report in a daily newspaper which took the Mayor literally, the ja.
is still June 9. Actually, all the Patrolman eligibles needed to 1,)) 1°
quota of 200 new appointments have not been given thelr mcdjcyy
examinations yet. About ten more will be examined tomorrow Wa.
nesday, June 4).

June, a Banner Month

June should be a big month for New York's Finest. Promotiong
and new appointments on June 9, PBA elections June 10, Sergeant's
examination June 14, and the annual baseball game with the Five De.
partment at the Polo Grounds for the Mayor's Committee, Jine 2
And, did somebody mention June 30?

Last Week to Campaign

With the voting scheduled for next Tuesday, candidates for Pp,
offices are winding up their campaigns. Everybody 1s confident of
election, Final pre-election statements follow:

President Burkard: ‘I’m very hopeful of re-election. I’m suite the
boys will appreciate what I've been doing for them for the past three
and one-half years.”

Vice-President Harnedy: ‘The entire board of officers with the
exception of President Burkard is with me, I predict the re-election of
the entire board with the exception of President Burkard,”

Ray Donovan, 70 Pot.: “If the members voted, I'd beat anybody
four to one... Three years ago, 10,500 out of 16,000 members of the
Police Department voted for me, but the delegates voted contrary to
the wishes of the members."

Patrolman George Deegan of the 68th Precinct couldn't be reached
for a statement as the LEADER went to press.

It’s on the Way

‘The 7,591 patrolmen who will sit in at the Sergeant's promotion test
a week from Saturday are beginning to feel the effects of iitense
study . .. June 15 should be welcome ... From the number of tele.
phone calls received in The LEADER office, many of the candidates
missed the answers to the questions in Study Series 22. Still others ap-
peared highly satisfied with the publication of the test given at the

end of the In-Service Training Course on Criminal Law Enforcement
in the City of New York by the Civil Service Commission's Bureay of
Training.

New Special Cops

‘The Municipal Civil Service Commission has created the new title
of Special Patrolman, Grade 2, with a salary range from $2,401 to $3,(00
a year. This action will enable first grade Special Patrolmen whose
salaries go from $1,800 to $2,400 a year to have a direct promotion line,
These men are in the railroad service and therefore had limited p
tion opportunities. The request to create this new title was mae
the Board of Transportation.

Medal Gets Credit

The newly established Medal of Valor to be awarded annually by

the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association will be given the same credit
‘on police promotion tests allowed for similar medals awarded to men
bers ot the force. In all police promotion tests service ratings cot
50 percent. Various medals awarded to individual members ot the

force for heroism has entitled these men to extra credit in service
rating. ‘The winner of the P. B. A. Medal for Valor from now on will
also receive such credit,

USED CAR
BARGAINS

WORKED TEN YEARS,
BUT NO PENSION
GOES TO HIS WIDOW

A request that the Board of Es-
timate pay # year's pension to the
widow of a ten-year-long employee
of the Department of Sanitation,
was denied last week in Supreme
Court. The request was denied
because the employee, although a
member of the’ department for
ten years, had not been a member
of the Retirement System for the
required ten years. Decision was
rendered by Justice Hammer,

The employee entered the de-
partment Dec, 8, 1930 and became
& member of the Retirement Sy:
tem June 8, 1931, His widow re-
ceived six months’ compensation
upon his death, Jan, 18, 1941. If
the employee had availed himself
of an opportunity to make his en-
trance into the Retirement Sys-
tem reroactive to the date of
his entrance into the Sanitation
Department, his widow would
have received the full year’s com-
pensation,

90,000 Drawing

Annuities

Approximately 90,000 employes
are drawing retirement annuities
from Uncle Sam, Only 11 percent
are women, The average annuity
is $965; the highest is $1,900, and
the lowest is $54,

Besides the 3% percent that is
deducted from the employe's pay
check for retirement the Govern-
ment also takes another $1 a
month. This is called the ‘'ton- |
tine’? deduction and it has bee
in effect since 1930, Since that
time the fund has grown to $67,-
000,000, which is more than
enough to pay expenses for oper-
ating the system for which it was

intended,

Warner Bros. Promise
‘Library of Screen’

Of particular interest to the
educational groups in the Civil
Service population should be the
news from Warner Brothers that
that company is establishing a
“Library of the Sereen.”’ Approxi-
mately 600 theatres throughout
the country will house the
branches of this brary, begin-
ning in the fall. Us

Recognition of the screen as a
force in education has been com-
paratively slow in development,
but the Warner plan should pro-
vide an important contribution to-
ward making the study of mo-
tion picture art as prominent in
English courses as the study of
drama and literature.

All the facilities and resources
of the new institution will be
made available to the public with-

out charge, Each library will be
stocked with material of direct
application to the screen, The

catalogue will include novels and
historical works already produced
and to be produced both by
Warners and other studios and
scripts of original film stories, as
well as texts and histories dealing
with Hollywood and the making
of pictures.

Another feature will be volumes
of still photographs from famous
productions, including rare stills
of early film days. These albums,

however, will be available only
for inspection and not for general
lending.

‘Warners has named an admin-
istrative committee which in-
cludes Hal B. Wallis, executive
producer, as chairman; Bette

Davis and Edward G. Robinson,
players; Gradwell L, Sears, gen-
eral sales manager; Norman
Reilly Raine and Casey Robinson,
writers, and Edmund Goulding
and William Keighley, directors.

“WANTED: More Desirable

The NEW YORK BUSINESS SCHOOL, 11 West 42nd
Street (cor. 5th Ave.), New York, N. Y., states that they have
placed every graduate from their school in very satisfactory
positions and need more girls for this training to supply the
demand for Secretaries.

An employer recently visited the school and asked for the
Principal. He stated, “I now have four of you graduates in
my offices and I need another.” He said, “Tell me, how do you
train your girls, who come right from high school, to become
such well trained secretaries?”

My answer was, “Because our school has adjusted its
direction to the realities of a secretary’s position in the busi-
ness office of today. You must realize that of every three to
five girls now enrolled in some sort of secretarial course, only
one will ever obtain a position in an office. ‘WE HAVE
PLACED EVERY GRADUATE,’”

He asked, “Is competition so terrific?”

“Yes, it is,” I replied.

“Then, is it true that your school has placed every gradu-
ate?’

“Yes, that is true. The New York Business School trains
bundreds of girls each year and obtains good positions for all
of those who finish the course.”

“How do you do it?” he asked,

Here is the substance of what I answered:

The NEW YORK BUSINESS SCHOOL, by a careful
study, learns exactly what sort of girls the better employers
want and what qualifications they require. To obtain a desir-
able secretarial position today the girl must meet certain
requirements,

THE NEW YORK BUSINESS SCHOOL
CHOOSES ITS STUDENTS

First, she must be one of the three most intelligent girls
among any average group of seven to ten, So, we accept only
girl
intelligence tests and a general knowledge test.

Second, the better offices also insist that a girl be able to
take dictation at 120 to 125 words a minute and transcribe at
50 to 60 words a minute. Many intelligent girls do not have
the coordination of ear, brain, and hand necessary for such
speed. Many students, for example, who completed the regu-
lar course in a certain leading New York Secretarial School,
are now sales girls in a department store, This school did not
tell them in advance that they could never develop sufficient

who are mentally superior, as determined by standard

stenographie speed for a secretary.

The NEW YORK BUSINESS SCHOOL requires that
every girl, before entering, take an I. Q. test to determine
whether or not she is likely to develop secretarial proficiency,
If the test reveals that she is not, this school advises her to take
up some other type of work. Only, if she has a particular apti-
tude for shorthand and typewriting will we accept her as a
prospective student, unless it is a case that she just wants a
short course on her own responsibility, or what we call a

brush-up course,

To obtain a desirable secretarial position today, besides
being mentally superior and a proficient stenographer, a girl
must also be personally attractive. I think it is a very poor
method of obtaining students for a school to accept an un-
attractive girl or a girl whom the school cannot place into a
position, ‘Che NEW YORK BUSINESS SCHOOL accepts only
girls who have the qualifications for secretarial training.

Be
to prepare them in a relatively short time, nine to twelve
months, for secretarial positions with organizations of high
standing like the Vogue Magazine, Mutual Life Insurance Com-
pany, Advertisers Magazine, Chase National Bank, ete,

BEING INTELLIGENT ISN’T ENOUGH

Again, being a superior gi

‘ause our girls are superior to start with, we are able

‘l, isn’t of itself, enough to
obtain a good secretarial position. We cannot place our
girls, however attractive, unless we give them special
training, Most secretarial schools fall chiefly into one of
two groups: Schools which emphasize just shorthand and
typewriting, and schools which in addition to these steno-
graphic subjects also teach subjects like commercial law,
economics, etc, ‘he really well-paid secretary spends an
average of less than three-fourths of the day in taking or
transcribing dictation, The rest of the time she performs
other duties which qualify her for a secretarial position,
This experience is obtained by the NEW YORK BUSI-
NESS SCHOOL students by training them in our general
offices after they have obtained a reasonable amount of
speed in dictation, These office duties consist of mailing,

The question was asked the writer, “How can a girl just grade

as much as the experienced girl he can engage for perhaps {hy
salary?

I answered him that our school is very thorough, The speed yg

oped in solving this problem of training our girls for the posilions they
obtain,

As stated above, our graduates spend from two to fou
weeks in our office preparing themselves for generil officg
training, ‘They are taught how to talk with the prospective

employer, We ask them questions which the prospective em
ployer would ask them and tell them how to answer. Abova

all, we teach them to show an interest in their work, just as

though it was their own investment, Our employment departs
ment then sends them out on their own responsibility to apply
for a position, feeling confident that they are well trained for

these positions before they are sent out. With this experience
behind our graduates, we know they are ready to apply for
almost any secretarial or machine position.

Many employers make an exception regarding graduates
from the NEW YORK BUSINESS SCHOOL because the
school takes only girls who are employable and teaches them
what the prospective employer wants, and also trains them
in the technique of applying for a position. We do not allow
our girls to accept a small salary, as we have a limited minimum
sulary our graduates may accept. This is to protect the girl
from accepting less salary than she should and it helps her get
the job because the recommentlation from the school informs
the employer that she is worth what we say she is.

We have obtained and established favorable relations with the beit
businesss houses in the city and place all our girls in the melropolilar
section, Most all of our students are placed within a radius of n
blocks from the school.

We have the record of having placed every graduate from ot
school since it was organized, and when a firm has one of our gil i
many cases, they demand a second, third, fourth, because they know ‘he
one we sent them at first was satisfactory.
